Harry Potter Birthday Party | Raleigh Lifestyle Photographer

I was so excited to be back with the Myers Family this year as they celebrated the twins turning the big 1-0! They requested Harry Potter, tacos and to be surprised. In response, their mom, Sunny, pulled a Mrs. Weasley and went above and beyond to deliver an epic celebration. Guests were transported to a new world as soon as they walked in. Truly, the only thing more amazing than how everything looked was that Sunny is a Harry Potter neophyte. Having only seen the first movie and visited Harry Potter World, she recreated Hogwarts in astonishing detail. From the entrance through Platform 9 3/4, floating candles in the great hall, to chocolate frogs and butter beer in Hogsmeade Village. Tacos Costa Grande was right outside the venue serving up incredible food faster than you could say, “Accio Taco!”. Of course, it’s not Hogwarts without a little magic and the night closed out with a super fun magic show performed by Magic By David. The audience was spellbound, but by their reaction when he apparated a snake, I don’t think anyone in that room spoke parsel tongue. I had so much fun capturing this event, what a fantastic theme! It gave me a great excuse to play around and add a little “magic” of my own to a few of the images. Sunny and Isaac, it was a joy to be back with your wonderful family again this year. Thank you so much for letting me preserve these memories for you. A very happy birthday to Nakato & Wasswa!
